Huff Post, W Post Reporters Charged For Doing Journalism

Tuesday, August 11, 2015

"Charging a reporter with trespassing and interfering
with a police officer when he was just doing his job is outrageous. You’d have thought law enforcement authorities would have come to
their senses about this incident. Wes Lowery should never
have been arrested in the first place. That was an abuse of police
authority. This latest action represents contemptible overreaching by
prosecutors who seem to have no regard for the role of journalists
seeking to cover a major story and following normal practice."Washington Post executive editor Marty Baron
